Am I Eligible for the UGC NET Exam in Management with My PGPBM Degree?

seham.jalil9
Hello,

I have completed my PGPBM (Management course) from KBS, an autonomous college in Pune, with 70% marks. I want to take the UGC NET exam for management/commerce. Am I eligible to take the exam? Please help.

Thanks,
Aditi

Hi Aditi, could you manage to find out if you are eligible for NET? I am facing the same issue. I have also done my MBA from an autonomous college.

Dear all,

If you have completed your MBA from a recognized institution by UGC, you are eligible to apply for UGC NET.

If you have any doubts, please send me your college details, and I will check and update the information for you.

CONDITIONS OF ELIGIBILITY

i) Candidates who have secured at least 55% marks (without rounding off) in a Master's Degree or equivalent examination from universities/institutions recognized by UGC in Humanities (including languages) and Social Sciences, Computer Science & Applications, Electronic Science, etc., are eligible for this Test. The Scheduled Caste (SC)/Scheduled Tribe (ST)/Physically Handicapped (PH)/Visually Handicapped (VH) category candidates who have secured at least 50% marks (without rounding off) in a Master's degree or equivalent examination are eligible for this Test.

ii) Candidates who have appeared or will be appearing in the qualifying Master's degree (final year) examination and whose results are still awaited, or candidates whose qualifying examinations have been delayed, may also apply for this Test. However, such candidates will be admitted provisionally and shall be considered eligible for the award of JRF/Lectureship eligibility only after they have passed their Master's degree examination or equivalent with at least 55% marks (50% marks in the case of SC/ST/PH/VH category candidates). Such candidates must complete their P.G. degree examination within two years from the date of NET result with the required percentage of marks, failing which they shall be treated as disqualified.

I have completed my MBA from Symbiosis Institute of Management Studies (Pune) in the year 2006. Until my batch, SIMS was an autonomous institute, but in September 2006, they were recognized by the UGC. Can you please guide me on whether I am eligible to appear for the NET?
